Time loop question

[Confluctor]

so, basically Galactus forced Sphinx into a time loop. The current Sphinx went back to his origin and met with his younger self and they devised a plan on how to change their fate - aka this time loop. Current Sphinx petrified himself and the old Phinx continued with his life as he would have from the beginning. The old one will die at the hands of Galactus again and be sent back to his origin again. Now, that's out of the way... The current Sphinx found a loophole on how to survive. So, when he was sent back to his earlier days, he petrified himself at the hands of the old Sphinx and stayed like that until his old version was dead. After his older version died, he left the petrifaction chamber and recreated the KaStone. Now, as long as he has the KaStone, he will be immortal again and defy the time loop shit placed upon him by Galactus, but the moment the KaStone is destroyed, he will literally cease existing and return to the time loop. I know it's kinda confusing, but what would Sphinx and the Ka Stone (and Galactus) get from that?

When seeing all your images in Imgur in the left there's an option saying All Images, in it you can create an album with the images you have.

Time Travel, BRF and Time Manip for Galactus for the time loop. Acausality for Sphinx for meeting with his younger self, Power Bestowal for the stone as it gives type 1 immortality with the weakness of it being removed as if it was never there when destroyed.

And I think there was some destiny thing going when where Sphinx is forced to do the same but I'm pretty sure is just the stone making him be evil and doing the same.

Sphinx's destiny is to die at the hand of Galactus. He tried to change that, and it worked until KaStone was destroyed

In what comics are the first scan happening?

 

[Confluctor]

The scans are from marvel two in one 95 or 97 iirc. The time loop stuff began in FF vol 1 213

 

[Eficiente]

Ok I see, the latter comic puts more clear that Sphinx was forced to do things by fate, so Fate Manip along what Galactus did. However, I don't think breaking out of it is any resistance or anything but a weakness of the ability, Sphinx was only in part manipulated while also being free to do things as he liked, him meeting his younger self and making that paradox as he said likely screwed over Galactus' power.

 

[Confluctor]

Aye, that's correct. So, to summarize; time manip, time travel and time based bfr for Galan. Also fate manip (??)

Immortality 1 for Sphinx after kastone and acausality type 1.

If only I could make a key for Ka stone less sphinx. Pain

 

[Eficiente]

Yes, even that Fate Manip, the evidence being the parts about it in FF vol 1 213 and in the op.
